Capture.Study eConsent lets participants read, understand, and sign informed consent forms on their phone, tablet, or computer. Multi-party signatures, witness co-signing, investigator countersignature. 21 CFR Part 11 compliant. Try it free.
Electronic Informed Consent (eConsent) software replaces paper consent forms with a digital workflow. Participants read the consent document on their own device, ask questions, and sign electronically. The entire process is captured with a tamper-proof audit trail.
Good eConsent software eliminates the logistical burden of printing, signing, scanning, and filing paper forms. It reduces consent errors, speeds up enrollment, and gives monitors instant access to signed documents. Capture.Study provides all of this and lets you try it for free before you commit.
Paper consent creates delays, errors, and compliance risk. Here is what changes when you go digital.

How It Works
No printing. No scanning. No filing cabinets.
Use the consent form builder to create sections, add comprehension checks, and configure signature requirements. Support for witness co-signatures and LAR (Legally Authorized Representative) signing.
Participants receive a secure link. They read each section on their device, complete any required comprehension questions, and sign electronically. The document hash is recorded with their signature.
The signed consent enters "pending countersignature" status. The investigator or authorized site staff reviews and countersigns with password re-authentication. The document is now fully executed.
eConsent Features
Built for regulated clinical research. Every feature below is included in your subscription.
Full signature workflow: participant signs, optional witness co-signs, then investigator countersigns. The document is only "Fully Executed" once all required parties have signed.
Participants read and sign consent forms on their phone, tablet, or computer. No app download required. Works in any modern browser.
After participant submission, authorized site staff review and countersign with password re-authentication and a legal meaning statement. Full 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
Support for Legally Authorized Representative (LAR) signatures when the participant cannot consent themselves. Optional witness co-signature for impartial third-party verification.
Each signature is cryptographically linked to the exact document content. If the document changes, the hash changes. You can always prove what version was signed.
Add questions between consent sections to verify participants understand key information before signing. Required by many IRBs and ethics committees.
Create consent forms in multiple languages linked to the same study. Each participant sees the form in their language. All versions tracked separately.
When your protocol changes, create a new consent version. Track which participants signed which version. Push re-consent to affected participants digitally.
See consent status for every participant: not started, signed, pending countersignature, fully executed. Filter by site, date, or status.
Send reminders to participants who have not yet signed and to investigators with pending countersignatures. Configurable schedules and escalation rules.
Download signed consent documents as PDFs with embedded signature data, timestamps, and audit trail. Ready for your regulatory binder.
Consent data lives alongside your CRF and ePRO data. One participant record, one audit trail. Consent status gates downstream study activities automatically.
All features included. No modules to buy separately.
Electronic signatures are verified through a two-step process: capture plus mandatory email OTP. Signers must acknowledge the legal binding status before signing. Data residency in EU (Frankfurt) and USA (N. Virginia).
Every action is logged: when the participant opened the document, how long they spent on each section, when they signed, and when the investigator countersigned. Document hash, device fingerprint, IP address, and browser are all recorded. No configuration needed.
Why Capture
Participant signs. Witness co-signs if required. Investigator countersigns with password re-authentication. The document is only marked "Fully Executed" when all required signatures are collected. This matches industry-standard workflows used by Medidata and Veeva.
Every signature records a hash of the exact document content at the time of signing. If even one character changes, the hash changes. You always have proof of what was signed.
Participants open a secure link on their own phone, tablet, or computer. They read the document, answer comprehension questions, and sign. No app store, no provisioned devices.
Consent status automatically gates downstream study activities. If a participant has not signed, they cannot be enrolled. One system, one audit trail, one data export.
Build your consent form, test the signing experience yourself, review the audit trail, and export the signed document. All free, no time limit. You only pay when you go live.
Build your consent form, test the signing workflow, and see the audit trail for yourself.
